How taut do you have to make it? i bought it because of the reviews, put it up today and it's fallen 3 times. Thanks.

what is the size of the opening,the opening i have is approx. 60 inches and the rod has alot of tension on it

Make it as long as you can while still being able to compress it to fit the space. The spring inside should hold it snugly in place.

Extended mine about 2- 4 inches and squeezed it in, its fairly tight and holds my shower curtain well.

I think you have to exend yours out to make it tighter. I made mine pretty taut. First, unscrew it so that it'sabout 4-6' wider than the space, then compress it so that it fits in snugly.

Tilt one end down a little. Adjust it to al little longer than needed and push it up to where you want it. You might have to pound it up with your hand to the spot needed.

I get mine close to the sides of the inside opening then turn one end til it fits tight. I've got several up and having no problem at all.

Yeah, sorry to tell u... But it won't stay in place. At first I liked it now I hate this piece. If anyone has any suggestions to ur question pls post. I'm interested in hearing about it.

Wish I could help you, but.... I bought it a long time ago & I never had a chance to put it up. So it's sits in my garage until it's a priority.However.... I was thinking of posting it on a wood post. Like an outside lamp light post. Not to sure how yet. But eventually... I will get around to putting it up. Sorry not much help!

I just got this and put it together fairly easily. I can't get the final two corner of the canopy on. You need to pull the fabric taut and I don't seem to be strong enough. Any tips, am I doing something wrong?

I haven't taken mine down since I put it together, but I don't see it being a problem. The instructions however, could be alittle more detailed.

You'd have to be really trying. We haven't had that problem. Can feel sort of weird if 2 guys are sitting on it, but for my wife and I it's perfect. Smooth, noiseless gliding, comfortable and looks great. Just get it. ....and have fun assembling!

It may sag a little, you have to tie it up tightly. I have had 3 of these now at various properties, I think they are really good.

Ours worked great until we crashed it way too many times. After that it would get more than about 6 inches off the ground. So if you have crashed it a bunch, that might be the reason why

Susan, I think there's always going to be a little movement especially if it's on carpet. It's isn't a design to be solid. A four let design would be solid. Those little metal things are only to limit the rocking motion. I don't know how you have those installed, but if they are installed as instructed, that may be as good as it gets. Mine wobbles a little. Sorry I couldn't help more.

I'm not sure what you're asking. You mean like if it falls over? I'm not sure....it's in my vintage trailer now, and I have it fixed so it won't fall. I can tell you it puts out a lot of heat for it's size, and is very pretty.

hello I never had that problem my problem was putting it down it took two people and it still did not lay right but it stuck good and come up good with no residue I still got a lot of it left but I live alone and it is hard to get some one to help put it down iwas going to use it every few weeks on my carpet but just to hard to do.

I've had mine for about a year, and have hated it as it will not stand up and falls almost every time you attempt to stand it. Today, I was not having a good day, had all I could take from it, and wrapped it around a post when it fell. I'll never buy another.

Are you sure you have the right pieces in the right order? I did not experience any difficulty stabiling my stand. perhaps you could try putting the base together first, making sure it's secure,then adding top/higher pieces? Am sorry, this prob isn't much help, but mine was fine.....

I haven't had problems, but bear in mind that I don't use it real often. I know it should not collapse. Hope it helps.

Its very steady. I have had mine up in my yard for 3months. It has never fallen over! :D

Not as much as I tried to hang on it...had it pretty full and thought all was good until I came back down to the basement later in the day and it had fallen over and one of the poles bent :( (sorry for the somewhat tongue-in-cheek answer...I don't know exact pounds...I had pants and suits hanging in it. It wasn't bursting at the seams, but was relatively full.)

We have not had any issues. Your frame should not keep falling down. I recommend making sure it was installed correctly first and then if you still have issues, call the manufacturer. No board should be needed.
